Oil and filter service in Gainesville, FL

Oil service to the specification your engine was designed around.

European engines specify oil by approval number, not just viscosity. We use the oil your manufacturer approves, the correct filter, reset the service indicator with the factory tool, and look the car over while it is on the lift.

In our words

Oil and filter service at Continental Imports.

Why the approval number matters

Modern European engines run tight tolerances, long drain intervals and, on many cars, particulate filters and timing systems that depend on the exact oil chemistry the manufacturer approved. Using the right approval is not fussiness; it is what keeps those systems alive. We stock and use the oils the specifications call for and can offer Liqui Moly products for owners who prefer them.

Questions

Owners ask.

Anything else, call and ask for a service advisor.

How often should my European car have its oil changed?

At the manufacturer's interval, which the car often tracks itself. Your advisor can look up your car's schedule.

What oil do you use?

Oil to the manufacturer's approval for the engine.
